Review on Acrylic Bubble Spirit Measuring Instrument by Jhonathan Bagwell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

*Read update at the bottom of the review* EASY TO SEE (ESPECIALLY IN BLACK LIGHT), GOOD QUALITY, THICK BODY. 5/5

is the spirit level. It is a plastic cylinder filled with a medium-viscosity green liquid. It's hard to screw up. My use for them is a little unorthodox: I mount them with a special fast-curing UV adhesive called Fiber Fix, an adhesive that cures instantly when exposed to blacklight and is insanely strong. and combines with strange features, like plastic with glass. I buy mine at home but I'm sure the one bought on Revain or eBay is cheaper. Anyway, I use it to attach one of these little buggers to almost every power tool I have, especially saws, drills, impact drivers, and screwdrivers. anywhere I need to make sure the tool is level while working. Because admittedly I'm talking nonsense when I say whether I'm drilling or straight cutting, so the bubble level on the tool itself is useless. My first thought when I tried this was "FUCK, this helps me get rid of a huge frustration and saves me time because his name was 'Batman' and my time was someone getting robbed in a dark alley in Gotham at night As I said, you can probably get them a lot cheaper here, but a tube will last quite a while if you reseal it and keep it away from heat and light - I just don't plan to include that in my Amazon orders so I can Won't tell you if it's more cost effective than buying one in the physical world It's really, really increased my efficiency when working with these tools and drastically reduced my frustration which is why I'm giving it a 5. Oh they shine in the UV light (black light), which doesn't seem to be useful, but I've been doing some repair work on some structures at the local laser tag spot, while it's open ten. in the actual object and all those lights made it so easy to see if I was properly bubbly that I didn't use my work light at all. pretty neat, and you'll never need it 99 times out of 100, but when you do, it's a nice surprise. EDIT: Lowered to 3 stars. These things have completely lost their bright yellow tint since my original review. they literally contain a clear liquid, making them quite difficult to see under certain conditions. The plastic and the layer itself hold up normally, but no matter what the liquid is painted with, it fades FAST. I don't think I'll buy them again, which is a shame. but i left 3 stars because they are cheap and the capsule itself is well made.

Pros
  • Measuring and marking tools
Cons
  • I can't remember,
